Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Clouded vision, perhaps?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

This one has me feeling cloudy. I'm nauseated and my skin won't stop crawling. It feels like my brain is sloshing around in my skull and I can't bear the thought of moving quickly. I'm light-sensitive and my eyes are just on the urge of hurting and bringing back the actual headache. I'm having vague auras which make it look like things are running around on my desk at the edges of my visual fields, as well as a couple bursts of light and colour here and there.

I'll probably be woozy for a few seconds when I stand up too.

It's a gross sluggish feeling--it's what adds on to a headache (for me) to make it not just a headache but a migraine.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Umm, crap. I'm suddenly thinking I have a lot more migraines than I usually give myself credit for.

And I need to make a pharmacy run because I'm totally out of one of my prophylactics

I read this quickly, and thought ita was going to go buy condoms. And was kinda impressed, but a little puzzled why she was announcing it.

And you in the pharmaceutical industry and all! Dirty little (flattering) mind.

amych--don't forget you may also be able to redeem sinus headaches for valuable migraine points.

That sounds miserable, ita. My tired is just due to not sleeping well and somewhat inexplicably tossing up my lunch at work today. One minute I was fine, the next was bathroom! NOW! And after, I was fine, but unfortunately hungry, but afraid to eat anything else. No idea what that was about.

I got a happy email blurble from a friend I'd recommended paperdol's book too. Awesome!

That's the sinking feeling I got, too.

Now tagless for your comfort.

I got to choose a book for a yahoo group discussion I'm on so I picked Vampire People.

Still waiting on news about my BiL. Nervous and bored, since Christopher took the kids to the gym.

I'm thankfully migraine free. Chronic pain sucks ass, though.

I hate to admit it but I think I've discovered endorphin rushes. I've started walking on a treadmill in addition to swimming and I always feel really, really good after leaving the gym. Freaky.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

Tomorrow we head to St. Louis for Tuckercon/Archcon/NASFic. (North American Science Fiction Convention, which is what you get when WorldCon is not in North America)
